What is relative distance in math?
Well, darling, relative distance in math is the difference between two numbers on a number line. It's like measuring how far apart they are without caring about the direction. Think of it as the mathematical version of "distance makes the heart grow fonder" - just without the warm fuzzies.
Is there a way you can you tell if the corresponding lines are parallel?
If you can find the slope of both lines, then yes you can tell. The slope for parallel lines is the same - so if your slopes are the same, your lines are parallel. If you are measuring (less exact) the lines will be the same distance apart everywhere.
